Work with team mates to ensure DEIR is integrated into position descriptions and the hiring process.

Quickly learn about assigned business areas to be able to be a trusted, strategic business partner.
Opportunities to solve problems:
This position has the opportunity to approach problems with the philosophy of providing risk-based advice with options. The conversation doesn't begin or end with "no." We seek to understand and provide creative solutions when possible, utilizing our subject matter expertise to clearly communicate risk associated with each option.
Classification and compensation challenges – true position planning from start to finish, including identifying workforce gaps that may lead to classification & compensation proposals.
Performance management challenges – how to coach leaders to address issues appropriately to reach the best outcome, including opportunities to provide focused, individual training or broader training to groups of employees.
